The Geosciences Advisory Committee of the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is soliciting the views and concerns of the geosciences community in advance of the committee's spring meeting, scheduled for 28--30 April at NSF headquarters in Arlington, Virginia. At this meeting, the committee will consider current and future geoscience plans and programs, priority areas in cooperation with other NSF directorates, and additional issues of relevance to the community. The chair and members welcome and solicit the views and concerns of the geosciences community so they may better represent their constituencies at upcoming meetings of the committee.
